Daily Warm-Up Exercises for Jazz Ensemble, Volume 2. (Drums). By Mike Lewis and Jack Bullock. For Drums. Jazz Ensemble Method; Warm-Ups. Jazz. Book. 24 pages. Published by Alfred Music Publishing (AP.SJ8636).
ISBN 0757930107. Jazz.
Daily Warm-Up Exercises for Jazz Ensemble was written as a series of studies to aid the jazz group in performance. It is published in two volumes, Volume I for the young or beginning ensemble, and Volume II for the more advanced group. All musical groups need a short period of time during the beginning of a rehearsal to reacquaint their body functions with the needs of making music. Even though individuals warm-up by themselves in preparation for performance, the group as a whole needs to experience basic musical qualities -- blend, balance, precision, intonation -- together to ensure good ensemble performance. Hopefully, this series will provide the jazz ensemble with materials organized in a logical manner to accomplish these goals.

Ye Jaliya-o - Percussion Part by Joan Szymko (1957-). For percussion. Joseph Ohrt Choral Series. Instrumental part only. Octavo sold separately (SBMP 726). Concert, Choral. Individual part. Published by Santa Barbara Music Publishing (SB.SBMP-726.1).
From the notes by the composer: I am an admirer of traditional West African music, with its direct simplicity and wonderful rhythmic complexity. I have composed an original piece of music with text excerpts from 'The Pulse of Life' by Catherine De Vinck interwoven with the dominant Lambango lyric: 'Ye Jaliya-o, Allah le ka Jaliya da' Oh music, God created music. The 'you are the heart, you are the sound....' 'Pulse of Life' chant begins as an undercurrent that rises and falls until it overtakes the piece. The rhythms in this piece are clearly African influenced, as is its tonality. The raised fourth (C sharp) is characteristic of Sauta, one of the kora traditional tunings. The kora is a 21 string harp-lute played by the griots as a lead instrument.
